Crunchy Bran French Toast

Is it ever a good sign when your cooking adventures start like this? Somehow these eggs got completely stuck inside the crate and I managed to break that one just trying to pull it out. What's that about, people? So weird.

I was pulling out the eggs to make Crunchy Bran French Toast for breakfast-for-dinner.

The process to make the french toast was a little haphazard. I have a very bad habit of not reading ALL the instructions, so I mixed up my egg wash only to notice I was supposed to add orange zest (pshaw!) and some other junk. I was supposed to use an egg white, but I accidentally used the whole egg. Ultimately, I ended up using two eggs, a little milk, vanilla extract and the eensiest bit of orange juice.

Meanwhile, Sean got to work making 4 sandwiches of honey wheat bread and raspberry jam.

On the other side of the kitchen, I was busy crushing bran flakes into crumbs.

Leaning tower of sammiches!

I then dipped the sandwiches in the egg wash, then in a pile of the bran crumbs and fried in butter and vegetable oil.

Finally, I pulled out the confectioner's sugar and dusted the top of the sandwiches, which is really fun.

The crunchy bran sandwiches were great, and somewhat healthy-ish (or so said the Food Network). The raspberry jam adds enough sweetness that syrup isn't needed, but Sean still poured it on. I'm always looking for new breakfast options I actually like, so this will be a good addition to the repertoire!

Kui: You know what I love about Raisin Bran Crunch? (C) All the delicious raisins!

Caroline: I like the crunchy flakes on the...granola clusters.You know? Its why it says crunch on there.

Kui: Yeah, but, Raisins are before crunch on the box, even BRAN made it before crunch!

Caroline: Yeah, but look how big the word "Crunch" is, it just dominates the box!

Fairie: I like the box because in the middle of the word Kelloggs (C) is "ello!" Like a British greeting. "Ello, Governor!"

Title:Cereal Rap

My pink and fuzzy ode to breakfast cereals. Thanks to Rebecca http://www.youtube.com/user/rebeccawrite for suggesting in the channel comments that I do a song about Cheerios - it was the inspiration! =:0)

LYRICS:

I wake up in the morning and I'm feeling kinda lazy
My eyes barely open and my head is pretty hazy
My tummy starts to grumble as the hunger takes its toll
Get outta my way I need to get a bowl!

Which friend is gonna join me? I like to make a habit
Of starting my day eating breakfast with a rabbit
trix are for kids and I like em a bunch
I also like kickin it with capn' crunch.
But that's life. What's life? It's a cereal.
Life Cereal - Hey mikey, he likes it!
1..2..3..
***
A is for Apple, J is for Jacks
G I M the dude with the cereal raps
I don't like it soggy it's my crunchy sweet addiction
Some ice cold milk is the perfect contradiction
It doesn't really matter if they're flakes or they're squares
As long as they taste good I don't really care.
Every day I find myself exactly in the mood
for something kid tested and mother approved
***
It's a modern stone age family! They kinda look like rebels
Running around with stone bowls and fruity pebbles.

Next thing you know there's dino, barney, fred
Yabba dabba do ya do ya do ya know instead
I'm looking for something that's magically delicious
I dont' even mind if I dirty more dishes

Gonna tempt your tummy with the taste of nuts and honey
What about raisin bran that's always nice and sunny
With two scoops of raisins I really wanna bite
I could eat those two scoops every day and night.
When it comes to cereal I'm kind of big talker
Especially cookie crisp - I'm an obsessive stalker
A bunch of little cookies that I can't seem to resist
I always seem to add them to my grocery list

But lets not forget about cinnamon toast toast toast crunch crunch
Crunch berries and frankenberry and boo berry and you berry
And me berry we're two berries that are very very
Cheery cheery cheerio o o oh's
But That's Life - What's Life? Its a cereal.
Life cereal. Hey Mikey.

***
A is for Apple, J is for Jacks
G I M the dude with the cereal raps
I don't like it soggy it's my crunchy sweet addiction
Some ice cold milk is the perfect contradiction
It doesn't really matter if they're flakes or they're squares
As long as they taste good I don't really care.
Every day I find myself exactly in the mood
for something kid tested and mother approved
***
Look at all the boxes in the aisle.
Every character has got a cardboard smile.
Do I go for nutrition or for the free prizes?
Look at all the different colored shapes and sizes.
I'm coo coo for cocoa puffs there's really no denying
The sugar in frosted flakes really gets me flying

That breakfast of champions costs a lot of money
And so do the bunches of oats with honey
Boxes getting smaller and the prices hit the top
It's enough to make your wallet snap crackle and pop

Flakes, bran, berries smacks crispies and bunches
I'd rather eat breakfast any day than boring lunches
It doesn't really matter if they're flakes or they're squares
As long as they taste good I don't really care.

Sponsored Post: Bario-Neal Jewelry

You know those companies that you feel so lucky to know about? That's how I feel about Bario-Neal. All of their jewelry is hand-crafted with reclaimed precious metals, ethically-sourced stones, and environmentally conscious practices. And it's gorgeous. Anna and Page are the artisans behind the jewelry, creating everything by hand in their Philadelphia studio.



I love this ring - it's simple, chic, modern. How incredible is that paper-thin band?


The reticulated rings on the right are made by continually heating and quenching the metal, giving them their organic shape and texture.


Tie the knot in silver or gold.


I'm thinking this simple gold band will go perfectly next to my vintage engagement ring...


There isn't a ton of unique wedding jewelry out there for men, but Bario-Neal is stepping in to fill the void for grooms who want something less traditional than the standard band.



If you don't see exactly what you want on Bario-Neal's website, you can work with Anna and Page to create the jewelry of your dreams - they'll even work with your heirloom materials. Because all of their work is handmade, make sure to place your order at least 4 to 6 weeks ahead of time (longer for custom pieces) - just a head's up for all you 2010 brides!
